The young and talented goalkeeper Egor Krapivin, who trains at Espanyol, continues his career with the club. Recently, Krapivin extended his contract and continues to hone his skills at the Spanish club’s academy. After a successful season and debut with the Juvenil B youth team (under 18 years), the goalkeeper is preparing for new challenges and training at the professional level.
Egor Krapivin trains and plays at Espanyol exclusively in Brave GK gloves, with his current favorite being the Brave GK Diamond Purple model. These gloves provide the goalkeeper with the necessary confidence and control in every movement on the field.
Egor Krapivin is a promising Ukrainian goalkeeper who has already demonstrated his abilities in leading Ukrainian clubs such as Dynamo Kyiv and Shakhtar Donetsk. With the onset of the war, he moved to Barcelona, where he joined the Marcet academy and later Espanyol. Krapivin not only shows excellent results at the club level but was also called up to the Ukraine youth national team in April, confirming his international status and potential.
In April 2024, Egor Krapivin was called up to the Ukraine U-16 national team to participate in the UEFA Development Tournament held in Tallinn from April 23 to 28. The team's head coach, Yuriy Moroz, included Krapivin among the 22 players, eight of whom are legionnaires playing for foreign clubs.
In the tournament, the Ukraine U-16 team faced Northern Ireland, Estonia, and Luxembourg. This tournament is an important stage in preparation for the Euro 2025 U-17 qualification, and participating in it allows Krapivin and his team to gain valuable experience on the international stage.
Egor's style of play is characterized by aggressive approaches, confident actions in the penalty area, and excellent skills in aerial duels. Thanks to his height (1.95 m), he effectively controls high balls and confidently fights for each one. Coaches and experts highlight his wide reach and ability to make quick decisions, making him a promising goalkeeper in professional football.
These gloves are made using 4 mm Supreme Contact latex, which , combined with a 4 mm foam backing, ensures reliable grip on the ball and softness in catching.
The Rollfinger cut provides ventilation and has no central seams, improving tactile sensitivity and comfort in play. The gloves feature Fix Fit technology, with internal silicone inserts that securely hold the gloves on the hand, allowing the goalkeeper to feel the ball as an extension of their own hand. The backhand is made of 4 mm latex and a thermo-regulating backing, ensuring stable performance in any weather conditions.
The color scheme of the gloves, combining white and purple, highlights their unique and stylish appearance. The absence of additional protective elements makes the gloves flexible and sensitive, which is especially important for goalkeepers who prefer freedom of movement and maximum control over the ball.
